About GovPilot's Initiative

“These are uncharted waters that require all of us to work together. We feel it is not just our responsibility - but our civic duty - to offer local governments at no charge the tools that can help them navigate this unprecedented crisis.” 

- GovPilot Founder & CEO, Michael Bonner

In an effort to assist local governments around the United States combat the Coronavirus outbreak, GovPilot has made available - free of charge - ten (10) out-of-the-box cloud-based modules designed to assist local governments during this pandemic. These modules will help non-essential employees work remotely - via their personal devices if necessary - thereby facilitating the urgent need for social distancing while continuing to deliver government services.

GovPilot is also providing software applications to local governments specific to the fight against Coronavirus, including an online drive-through test registration for residents; a digital module to enable local governments and their departments to track COVID-19 related expenses, in order to quickly apply for reimbursement through FEMA’s Public Assistance Process; and GIS mapping for towns, cities, and counties who would like to create public-facing maps displaying permanent public health assets such as hospitals, and temporary facilities including testing sites, distribution areas, and containment zones. 

These free, easy to use cloud-based tools are configured for rapid out-of-the-box deployment and implementation, and represent standardized, best-practice workflows. GovPilot offers more than 100 such workflows to unify data and departments across local government operations. We encourage government officials that are interested in more extensive, tailored services to schedule a 15-minute consultation. 

We have made free account setup, activation, and implementation incredibly straightforward and intuitive. Your dashboard will be set up and ready for use in a matter of minutes after activating your account. Just one official from a government needs to create an account via the form above to activate access across their entire organization, including all departments and employees. 

Key features:

• Digital Forms: Enable constituents to submit digital forms. Government employees can process filings from anywhere, at any time. This removes the need to handle paper and removes unnecessary keystrokes, redundantly transposing information from paper to legacy systems. 
• Secure & Cloud Based: Facilitate social distancing with a system that enables constituents to submit forms digitally, from home. The cloud also allows employees to access and process records from home via their personal computer. Employees who work in the field such as inspectors can process records in real time via a tablet. Employees who would otherwise need to return to the office to retrieve updated assignments, scheduling, or to input results, can instead access and enter data from home.   
• GIS mapping: Map relevant assets Including permanent health facilities such as hospitals, and temporary assets such as distribution centers, testing sites, containment zones, and other public resources. No ESRI license necessary. Local governments can place this map on their homepage for the public to access by simply posting a hyperlink.
• Report-a-Concern via the GovAlert App: A mobile app available for Android and iOS devices which enables residents to snap a geo-tagged picture of a pothole, overgrowth, damaged street sign, or other non-emergency along with a description of the situation. Whether submitted via the GovAlert mobile app downloaded to their phone, or the GovPilot digital form on their town's website, the concern is geo-tagged on the municipality's GIS map and routed to the appropriate government official, who receives the alert in real-time. Departments can track the status of hazards as they are reported, the dispatch of personnel to address needs and the updating of constituents on repair and resolution statuses in real-time.
